l2a – LaTeX to ASCII

L2a at­tempts to re­move LaTeX markup com­mands, leav­ing only the
body of text. It is in­tended to be used when jour­nal ed­i­tors
re­quest plain ASCII text for type­set­ting, or when you want to
post a plain ver­sion of a LaTeX doc­u­ment on an elec­tronic
con­fer­ence sys­tem.
